Thanks Jo*ma
But at this time can I continue applying for Reconsidersation for carpal tunnel? Or do I need to Go see different doctor for different report? I have no insurance and experiencing a financial hardship at this time. So stresses out. Thank you |

I think states have differing laws/rules for wc. It's been nearly 10 yrs since my claim.
Go to your state website and explore the workers comp area. For mine , after they denied it, I got an wc atty (some are good and some are not so good, try to locate a good one). They tend to tell you a lot of good stuff to get you to sign with them, after that it can be hard to talk to them.. ![]() But there is no cost to you until you get some settlement $$ or back pay, then they get a % up to a capped amount out of that $.. Sometimes the atty will know some docs that will help your claim and you can go to them. After denial my atty wrote a letter for all my wc treatment bills to be placed on hold, so I could still get treatment & PT. A few places required my pvt ins card as a secondary just in case.. Then the bills can be paid out of the settlement moneys. WC is so confusing it is best to get any atty - interview quite a few before deciding to sign with any of them.. then go home and do some searches on them for info. But they will help you thru the claim process , esp w/ an "invisible" injury like RSIs tend to be.. But check out the TOS forum , you might be able to help yourself heal or stop the damage from getting any worse..
